[ don't tempt me. i'll have a crab ruin this.... ]
I received a memory of Steven back in his world fighting, so yes, he was quite the adept fighter. [ he didn't to see steven make use of his ice powers but it's fine. he saw Enough. ] However, we all have had our abilities and powers taken from us.
[ childe your water and law your bullshit one piece powers. ]
Maybe Omi is secretly capable of cruelty that we just don't know about. [ you know like childe holding out for aoi to be this mass murderer. ] Or maybe something possessed him. Still, Douman seems likely.
[That's a fair enough point, and Childe tips his head to acknowledge it.]
In the motherland, they say "in calm waters, monsters dwell". [So he's absolutely not discounting that Omi could be capable of murder.] If it's between the two of them, though, you'd have to cover your tracks better with Omi. [A pause, as he thinks about the last two trials.] ...Maybe.
[ the fact that this is between a dlif and a clown is kind of funny but we won't go there. instead law will also agree. ]
Maybe.
[ even if they have been terrible at solving murders, there are times where things seem super close about figuring things out and it just becomes a matter of who to vote for. given all of the co-conspiring they have been doing, law figures this would be best to make clear into the air between them. ]
...would you help cover for me?
[ or, you know, help him out with an item or two. he doesn't know what you got, if anything, from your cyoa. ]
["Maybe" indeed. Especially since a day from now their friendly neighborhood cops will actually try to get organized, so--Law's right, now's the time to move.
But that's not about to stop Childe, who nods easily, like it's hardly a question.]
Sure, of course. [Within reason, he figures, is clear enough without being said. He crosses his arms, tapping his elbow as he thinks.] Let me know who you choose, alright? I'll see what I can do.
[Childe is both an asshole and also not stupid enough to get attached to anyone in a murdergame, so even though he likes both Omi and Douman well enough, he's fine with this. He'll likely be making a move soon as well.
As for items and gifts, he mulls that over in his head.]
The one from that little adventure we had the other day might be too obvious, but I might be able to time it well. I'll speak with Lust, too, and see if there's anything they can give me to assist you. [The answer might be no, but he'll try.] Did you have a weapon in mind?
[ law will just nod his head at childe suggesting to speaking to lust for an item to help him somehow. that'd be greatly appreciated but law won't expect much. ]
I have a weapon of my own but I'll think about using something from one of the rooms.
[ because using his sword would really narrow down the number of culprits. ...never mind a shovel was used and they overlooked that. ]
I haven't quite planned it through yet but there are a few things that would generic enough that shouldn't paint such a huge target on me. [ hmm. ] Actually, there's quite a bit that I need to think about before I decide to go on with this. No room to be sloppy or at least not purposefully sloppy.

I will, though it might just be a toss up between Omi and Douman.
[ though he personally wants to leave on one more than the other but it's fine? a stab is a stab in the end... ]
And if you'd spare an items or "gifts" you've received, I'd appreciate any; know that whatever you help me with, I'll help with you.
[ so, you know, if law survives and childe wants to go in for a stab? he'll totally help childe out. ]

[And he figures Law isn't going to want to ditch his sword, not that there's a good way to destroy it anyway.
But he nods.]
Think it through. Come find me when you're ready, alright?
